Remote and Relay in a WDS

What is the exact difference between remote a relay in a WDS. Also I don't really know what bridge mode is.
I have an airport extreme and want to increase the range with an airport express, what is the best way to do this?
Thanks for any help out there.

bogiegolfer, Welcome to the discussion area!
The best way is to connect the AirPort Express (AX) via Ethernet to one of the LAN ports on the AirPort Extreme base station (AEBS). Then you would configure the AX to act as a bridge (not distributing IP addresses). You would also configure the AX to use the same SSID, wireless encryption type/level/password, and a different channel (as far from the one used by the AEBS as possible).
A "remote" base station does not allow signals to be passed to another base station, only to wireless clients.
A "relay" base station can pass signals along wirelessly to another base station as well as wireless clients.
When a base station is operating in bridge mode it is not acting as a router. It is not handing out IP addresses and it is not doing DHCP.
Be aware that iIf you use WDS your wireless bandwidth will be cut in half.

Remote or Relay

I did RTFM and I'm still not clear. Have an Airport Express being used as a base station. works fine. in-laws live in physically adjacent house. had cat5e strung from their place to mine, but couldn't string directly to closet where switch is.
So, two wired connections coming into switch and one wired connection out to a second Airport Express, thinking I could just hop over to the Base Station (the other Express) a few feet away. Under this scenario, is the 2nd Express acting as a remote or a relay? And not clear how it and the "base station" need to be configured to allow this.
Do I need to put in the Mac address of each on the other one so that 2nd knows who base is and 1st one "allows" 2nd to talk to it?
Thanks (my hair is too short to pull out, but I'm trying)

I'm not sure I understand the physical connections in your scenario.
The terms "relay" and "remote" only apply when using WDS to wirelessly connect the base stations. If you are using Ethernet to connect them, these terms do not apply.
A relay allows you to connect another base station to it. For example:
main<-> relay<-> remote
A remote does not allow other base stations to connect to it.
If they are connected via Ethernet, the base stations do not really talk to each other. Data packets flow between them as the clients need, but the base stations aren't passing control or status information back and forth.
If they are connected via Ethernet, the one not connected to the internet directly should be configured to act as a bridge (not sharing a single IP address).

Should I add third AE base as remote or relay?

I have an Airport network with two AE bases, one as the main and the second as the remote. I am planning on adding a third one and I have a doubt: should this also be a "remote" or a "relay" when added to the existing bases?
Thank you for your help!

If this third base station is going to be communicating directly with the main base station just as your existing remote base station - then it too should be added as a remote (and not a relay) base station.
A relay base station is used when you need to have a base station that communicates with a main base station as well as a remote base station - useful if you want to get even more range. In such a case, the remote base station would be configured to connect to the relay base station.

Remote vs Relay - stability issue?

I am setting up a network with three base stations (one AEBS, two expresses). If all three stations are in range of each other, is there a difference between setting them up as remotes vs relays? Basically, both expresses will be connecting to the AEBS, should I have them connect to each other as well?

WDs reduces the speed of the network, Using a relay makes it even slower.
If all remotes are within range of the main base stations. Set them as remotes for WDS.
Relay is a last ditch effort for extending to a part of the home/office that will not be in range of the main airport.
" Plus, you have to manually do everything for a relay.... UGH"

Remote and local interface on same ejb 3.0 bean instance

Hi,
Is it posible to get remote and local interface on same ejb 3.0 bean instance.
For example get local interface of a bean and than pass it as remote to client.
Both interfaces must operate on same bean instance.
Thanks
Zlaja

yes. You can implement multiple interfaces on a single class, so you can add a local and a remote interface. One trick to avoid duplicate code is to simply make the remote interface extend the local interface; then you only have to add the @Remote annotation and you're done.
For example get local interface of a bean and than pass it as remote to client.You don't pass an instances to a client, a client looks up a remote instance of the bean through JNDI.

Satego x200-21u - Remote and HDMI not work on Windows 7

Hey
I have a problem with win7 and the remote that was delivered with my notebook when i bought it
I installed all drivers from the toshiba homepage for win7. I also installed some of the winvista driver, like the webcam- and the touchpad drivers.
The only two things, not working are the remote and the HDMI-Sound output.
my remote doesnt work with win7. and if i connect my notebook to my flat-tv via HDMI-Cable i only see the picture but hear no sound.
I changed also the settings in the soundoptions in win7 from default to Digitalaudio (HDMI) but it doesnt work anyways..
can someone tell me which drivers i need to install these two or what i have to do, to make my remote and the HDMI output work?
thanks alot

Hi mate,
This is really strange to say because this notebook is a little bit older and therefore there is no official Windows 7 support I think...
Do you have yellow exclamation marks in device manager at the moment?
For HDMI I think chipset, display and sound driver should be installed. Maybe you can get one on the Intel page directly.
Make also sure that the newest BIOS version is installed on your notebook.

Remote and testing server don't see root relative links the same

My site works fine on my testing server (Apache, MYSQL,
PHP). I use root relative links in a library
file (include file) so that it will work with all pages. For the testing server these links look like this:
/my_sites_root_folder/aaa/bbb/ccc etc.
If I use these same links on the remote server they won't work. To get hem to work I have to change all these links to the form
/aaa/bbb/ccc etc.
When dreamweaver uploads files to the remote server, the site name folder (my_sites_root_folder) doesn't go along for the ride--just the files in it. So on the remote all the site files are stored in htdocs. On my testing server, the files are stored in htdocs/my_site_root_folder.
I think it must have something to do with the way I'm setting up the remote and testing servers, but I'm read a hundred pages of instructions without being able to figure it out. I think I'm just seeing something wrong, but I've already spent days on this. Can someone please point me in the right direction?
I'm using DWCS5. Internet explorer 8, Windows 7.

Thank you for your prompt response. I'm afraid I'm still totally puzzled here. It sounds like you're very knowledeable about your comments, but I would like to know more. I accept that using the local site root in links would be bad, but I'm not clear WHY. Structuring the links as I have doesn't cause any links to break. I've structured them this way because it's the only way I can find that everything works. But I still do not understand WHY I have to do it. Using different libary include files doesn't seem like a good way to go, though
You suggest that if I use any root relative links at all, I need to use vitual hosts. I'm not finding any good coverage of what these are, and especially why they are necessary. If this is the case, does that imply that templates (which use root relative links) also will not work on the test server (at least without vitual hosts)? The conclusion I'm coming up with, given your remarks, is "Dreamweaver doesn't work with root relevant links when you're trying to test a site with a test server." Is this right?

Remote and testing server set up

I want to upload to the server some php pages containing a registration form, log in, and membership directory. I am able to get everything working ON MY COMPUTER (not shouting - just for emphasis) using wamp server. I am completely confused about how to get it on the server. I have tried creating a test database at the server but I am confused about how to connect. Do I need to set up both a remote and a testing server in the site setup on DW (CS5.5)? I think the problem is with the database setup form, that is, databases - + - mySLQ connection. What do I put in the form fields?
So far, I have tried, among other things,
Connection name: myusername_testform
mySLQ connection: localhost
Username: the one I set up at the server
Password: the one I set up at the server
Database: myusername_testform
and I get the following error message when I test it:
HTTP error code file not found etc.
possible reasons:
1. There is no testing server running on the server machine.
2. The testing server specified to this site does not map to the the http://ftp.mysite.com/_mmserverscripts/MMHTTPDB.php URL. Verify that the URL prefix maps to the root of the site.
I have contacted the server and have tried to understand their answers but have had no success in getting this done.
Any help would be much appreciated. I am really new to php and forms and databases, so please keep it as simple as possible. Thanks

Thanks very much for responding. Sorry - I'm not quite sure what you mean. I initially did all the set up steps (set up local server, create database in wamp phpMyAdmin, create a members directory, create a registration page, create a log in form) and I got all of that to work on my computer. Now I want to upload the forms and database to the server. Rather than use the database that I had originally set up on my computer, I set up a new test one with with one table and only a few categories using the phpMyAdmin on the control panel for the site. Where is that database? Is it at the server? What I'm confused about is this: How do I connect to the database at the server? Do I need to set up the site the same way as I did when it was only on my computer, i.e., set up a remote server AND a testing server? Or do I just need to set up the remote server? In either case, how do I add the database to the site using mySQL connection? I think the problem is with what I type into the form field "my SQL connection" but I really don't know. I'm so confused lol

Remote and Local Site Sync Problems

I have a customer who is using Dreamweaver CS4 on Mac OS X. Dreamweaver is setup to have a local site as our development server(win 2k3) and the remote site as our live web server(win 2k3). The folder structure on both the development and live web server is the same. When you view the path in the manage site window of dreamweaver it shows both remote and local site listed as /Volumes/www/Data. When dreamweaver connects to both of these to sync the files nothing happens since it sees them as the same place.
I have looked in the /Volumes folder on the customers computer and two listings appear for the servers www and www-1. This is not what dreamweaver shows and if you repoint the link to the www-1 folder it just changes back to www.
I have tried to create alias' and symbolic links to distinguish one folder from the other however nothing I seem to change has any effect.
If you use finder on the machine it can distinguish between the two folders I just need to figure out how to make dreamweaver do the same.
Any assistance on this would be greatly appreciated.

Unfortunately no I do not have a solution. I was not able to find out at the time and the problem went away with the migration to a content management system for our web server. Also the Develpment team changed hands and the new people all use windows machines.
Good Luck trying to find a solution.

Remote and Transactional Cube

Dear Friends,
How a Basic Cube differs from a Transactional and Remote Cube ?
A Small Example- Cube Carries the Transaction data of Customer ,Material, Sales details ( characteristics) and price, Quantity and Revenue (keyfigures) .
When do we Really have to Change or to Create the Other Cubes to hold those Data ?
What is the Exact Purpose that a Scenario Needs the Remote and Transactional Cube ?
I hope Remote Cube Can be created with "Infoservices" and "Source system" . What is the demand for both these options?
Thanks well in advance ,
Ramesh

hi,
Remotecbue will have only structure and It does't hold any data.
and it is used to bring live data to BW ..At the time of reporting only the data fetches from the source system. So it takes more time to execute.
it will not hav update rules...
Transactional InfoCubes are used only in conjunction with SEM. The data from this kind of InfoCube is accessed transactionally, meaning data is written to the InfoCube (possibly by several users at the same time) and reread as soon as possible. Basic InfoCubes are not suitable for this. You should use Basic InfoCubes for read-only access (for example, when reading reference data).

Remote and Universal Dock

Hi guys,
There's been a few discussion already on the remote and universal dock. Is it difficult for Apple to enable the display of the Ipod screen to the TV-out? You can gain a huge amount of functionality on the Ipod if you can actually see where you are on the menu and remotely navigate it. It just seems strange that I need to walk over to change from one play list to the next even after owning the remote. Apple please take note for this suggestion!
cheers,

Nevermind, a hard reset fixed it!

Remote and direct update of master data at the same time

Remote and mic not working

I got a earpods with remote and mic for my iPod touch quite while ago,
it stopped working a couple of months ago, how can I fix this!

First see if the earphones/mic/remote work with another device or if a know working one works with your iPod.
If the iPod is the problem:
- Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so. There is a little switch in the headphone jack that disconnects the speaker when the headphone jack is inserted.
Try the following to rule out a software problem
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack or other hardware problem.
Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
If not under warranty Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours.
Apple - iPod Repair price
A third-party place like the following will replace the jack for less. Google for more.

Apple remote and built-in trackpad stop responding

I have a Macbook Pro - late 2011 - and have upgraded to Mountain Lion the day it was released. I bought a brand new Apple remote and paired it with my MBP. Today, as usual, I used an HDMI cable to connect my MBP to a LED TV and started giving a lecture based on a Keynote presentation I created full of videos snippets and the like that I sometimes pause using the remote. All of a sudden the remote - which had been previously paired with my computer - stopped responding. I immediately switched to the arrow keys on the keyboard and finished the lecture. I also noticed that the built-in trackpad had stopped responding to multiple gestures.
Has anyone been experiencing these problems? And is there a solution? I have searched high and low, but to no avail.
TIA

Found a solution!!!
Reset the System Management Controller.
Now eveything is working as expected!

Problem With Remote, and strange error that crashes diagnos

Hey guys. I'm a n00b to the forum, but I think this is my best hope. I'm having this problem getting my remote to work, and I'm getting an error that appears to common, but I haven't been able to find a solid solution. I can't do a reload, since I have savegame files that can't be backed up, and a large home-video backup on this computer. I don't have enough DVDs to back it all up onto. The one thing that I REALLY want to work is the Remote. For some reason it won't work. I know it isn't the battery, because it worked fine before I reloaded this system last (September?), and I have tried a new battery in it. I've also tried turning up the sensitivity settings. I've noticed the red light occaisionally flickers on the Creative Hub thing when I'm not even touching the remote. When I try to run the diagnostic program I get an error (The instruction at "0x77f536f7" memory "0x00000000". The memory could not be "written". Click OK to Terminate the program, or Click CANCEL to Debug the program) I've tried clicking CANCEL on this, and that does nothing but pop up the error message (The instruction at "0x084c42f" referenced memory at 0x00000008". The memory could not be "read". Click OK to terminate the program). Clicking OK on the previous window also gives you that error. Clicking OK on the error just mentioned closes down the diag program. I've tried using the Restore Defaults option, and that didn't fix the problem either. I've also run DocMemory on my computer, and according to it, my RAM is fine. As far as product updates go, I've downloaded them all and installed them all too. Everything works but the remote... and I think it may be partially b/c of the supposed RAM-based error. I haven't tried running it in safe mode yet... I'll try that and get back to you ASAP.

Wardrich,
There are a couple of things I would suggest. First off I would make sure that the remote control is enabled in Mediasource, it is not by default. To do this go into Mediasource and go to Tools/Settings. In here there is a remote control tab. Make sure the remote and the OSD is enabled in here. If it is then we need to look at doing a cleansweep and reinstall of the card. Here are the instructions on cleansweeping the card:
